Faced with Tang Zhou’s questions, Ye Xingguang debated whether to tell the truth or make up a story. However, they were about to return to the empire, so making up a story seemed pointless. Instead, Ye Xingguang decided to explain to Tang Zhou and Han Chengbei where they were headed.
Upon hearing this, Tang Zhou exclaimed, “Atlantis Empire, what’s that? I’ve only heard of this name in myths. It was said to be a highly developed ancient continent that was destroyed by a flood ten thousand years before the Common Era. Are you telling us we’re going to this prehistoric empire that doesn’t exist?”
While feasting hungrily on his food, Ye Xingguang replied, “Yes, we’re heading to the Atlantis Empire. The empire didn’t disappear. Atlantis used to be on land, but geological changes caused the highly developed continent to sink twenty thousand meters underwater. The inhabitants who couldn’t adapt to undersea life all died, but some who could adapt survived. It’s a case of survival of the fittest. Not only did the survivors adjust to underwater life, but over generations, they evolved into beings capable of breathing under water. They have taken residence in the sea, and behold, the Sea God they revere is none other than the mermaid.”
Tang Zhou: “…”
Tang Zhou asked Han Chengbei, “Did you understand all that?”
Stretching his long legs casually, Han Chengbei replied, “I think I got it, but I’m not sure. Let’s hear your thoughts.”
With a confident posture, Tang Zhou said, “I believe that despite our pre-existing tensions, we must unite now to face a common enemy. Let’s form an alliance, shall we?”
Being tactful themselves, Han Chengbei promptly agreed to an alliance with Tang Zhou: “I believe we can temporarily become ‘plastic teammates’ for the sake of facing a mutual enemy.”
As for the Atlantis Empire, the two didn’t believe a word of it.
However, when a whole underwater continent appeared before their eyes, both Han Chengbei and Tang Zhou were taken aback.
Five hours later, they were sitting in a submarine facing a vast continent. How to describe the feeling? It was like staring down from an airplane at a continent full of towering buildings.
Tang Zhou rubbed his eyes vigorously, peering through the transparent glass at the world outside, questioning if his eyes were playing tricks on him, “Han Chengbei, what do you see? I see skyscrapers and streets. Are we sure we’re still underwater? How could there be light underwater? Wasn’t the surface pitch black when we last checked?”
Looking down through another window, Han Chengbei replied, “You aren’t seeing things, I see it too. Goodness, where on earth does this light come from?”
Standing aside, Ye Xingguang, who resembled Mrs Liu touring the Grand View Gardens, explained, “The empire has a type of tree called the ‘Sacred tree’ which emits light. One Sacred Tree’s brightness alone can illuminate an entire underwater city. These Sacred Trees have many children whose roots are all connected and spread across various underwater cities and villages. I always suspected that the reason the trees can emit light is because their roots penetrate deep into the earth’s crust and draw upon the magma’s burning light. I can’t think of any other reason why a Sacred Tree can shine so brightly, to bring light twenty thousand meters beneath the ocean.”
As the submarine continued to descend, everything on the underwater continent grew larger and larger, clearer and clearer, just like the approaching view when an airplane is landing.
Han Chengbei spotted a building resembling a cathedral from a historic ancient city, with a proud mermaid at its pinnacle.
Han Chengbei curiously asked, “My gosh, what’s that building with a mermaid at the top?”
“That’s the Sacred Temple of the Empire.”
